Spider-Man gets free DLC suit, internet man-babies claim victory

Spider-Man today received a new DLC suit patterned on Sam Raimi’s trilogy of Spider-Man films, Insomniac Games confirmed. The gift to players has been claimed as a victory for an incredibly vocal minority who relentlessly whinged across social media.

A select few across Twitter and other social media have been demanding the Raimi suit for months now, and have asserted today’s free gift was a last-minute response to the request. Insomniac’s James Stevenson has knocked this idea back, confirming that the suit has been in development for months.

At any rate, maybe the man-babies will quiet down a bit now that they have their way. Enjoy this tweet where level-minded users take a dig at the courageous souls who decided to scream at a publisher until they got their DLC suit.
